In this week's column, the McHenry County Board of Realtors responds to questions that have not been discussed in recent months. Q. - Our house has been on the market for two months, yet only a few people have come to look at it. We un­ derstand the problem of high interest rates, but is there anything we can do? A. - Make your home as attractive as possible. The first thing is your home's physical appearance. Make all necessary repairs; paint and clean your home. Many homeowners are not as concerned with cosmetics as they should be, and a home with a well-maintained look will be much more attractive by comparison. Your financing package should be made attractive as well. There are a number of alternative plans that may meet your situation. Remember, most people want to know how much cash they have to put down, and what their monthly payment will be. A realtor will have those answers ready and help you find a buyer. Q. - I've heard that land­ scaping can save energy. How does this work? A. -- Landscaping is often overlooked as an effective means of helping to cool and insulate a home. Leafy trees planted on the south side of your home provide shade in summer, yet allow sunlight to enter in winter. A thick lawn will keep some solar radiated heat from entering your home. Trees also function as a wind barrier. Several evergreens- planted'on the* side of the house facing the prevailing winds force the air over their tops and provide an envelope of in­ sulation for your home. Trees and shrubs hold moisture, which cools the s u r r o u n d i n g a i r b y evaporation during the heat of the day. Vines provide shade in summer, and help insulate in winter by holding a barrier of dead air between themselves walls of your house. Q. - Is it true it's easier to finance a mobile-home than in the past? A. - Yes. Manufactured housing, as it Is referred to now, has become more like a conventional home than a vehicle. It is becoming more attractive to first-time buyers, and financial in­ stitutions are more willing to finance it as a conventional home. In addition, the Federal N a t i o n a l M o r t g a g e association has reversed its policy and will buy mor­ tgages on manufactured housing. However, laws in a few states may still prevent manufactured housing from being treated as con­ ventional housing for loan purposes. If you have any questions relating to real estate, send them to the McHenry County Board of Realtors at P.O. Box 192, Woodstock, 111., 60096. Questions of a general interest will be answered in later columns. However, the McHenry County Board of Realtors cannot guarantee a response to all questions. COMPLETES SCHOOL Wayne R.

A wealth of scientific evidence reveals that the key to whether you live to a healthy, vibrant old age can be found in several personal habits - habits which you control. Within this century, the occurrence of life- threatening infectious and communicable diseases has been greatly reduced. People are living beyond the childhood years when commpnicable diseases used to shorten the life span. Now people are living to an age when the degenerative diseases take their toll. The 10 leading causes of death, which account for as much as half of United States mortality, are the result of unhealthy behavior or lifestyle. Heart, blood vessel and kidney diseases, the many forms of cancer and accidents make up the majority of the fatalities. Cigarette smoking is the most important cause of death that could be prevented. There is no longer any question that cigarette smoking causes most cases of lung cancer - 80,000 a year, in fact. On the bright side, however, studies show that there is a constant decline in death rates from lung cancer for former male cigarette smokers who have abstained for ten years or more. Recent studies show this to be true of women, also. Cigarette smoking is also a major factor in heart at­ tacks. Even in the absence of other important risk factors, such as high-blood pressure and high cholesterol levels, smoking nearly doubles the risk of heart attack for men. The Surgeon General of the United States estimates that 346,000 deaths a year can* be attributed to cigarette smoking - cancer of the lung, mouth, esophagus, bladder, heart attacks, among others. If you are a smoker who would like to stop, but are having difficulty doing so, the state health department encourages you to switch to a low tar and nicotine brand and decrease the number of cigarettes you smoke. Another important risk factor is obesity. It seems, es, that 50 percent of thfc people are dieting and the dther 80 percent should be. n you are one of the 50 percent who should be, you should know that overweight people are at a greater risk for diabetes, gall bladder disease and high-blood pressure. When you consider the strain excess pounds put on bodily functions, especially the b^art, it makes good sense to stay within 10 percent of the optimal weight for your age and build. If you are an active person, the chances are you would gradually lose any excess weight by cutting backon the amount of fat, sugar and salt you normally eat. But don't cut out completely any of the four basic food groups. Remember, the greatest potential for improving your health and longevity lies in what you do or do not do for yourself.
